Laws of Gravity is a 1992 American crime drama film written and directed by Nick Gomez and starring Peter Greene.[2]

Plot

Jimmy and Johnny are two Brooklyn street toughs who never made it into workaday society. Danger is the hit that gets them out of bed. Jimmy owes a loan shark money and Johnny is wanted by the police. Things go further out of control when their old friend Frankie arrives in a stolen car with a trunkload of guns for sale.

Cast

Reception

Vincent Canby give the film a positive review in The New York Times, writing that "Mr. Gomez's narrative is bleak, but it is kept in such tight focus, and dramatized with such intensity, that the effect is spellbinding even when the terrifically accomplished actors, all speaking at once, go sailing cheerfully over the top."[3]
